Everyone has a fighting chance
I will not get tired of saying that the last couple of years have been golden for any fan of classic-inspired cRPGs, myself included. Between Obsidian’s Tyranny and PoE2: Deadfire and Larian’s Divinity 2: Original Sin, gamers were able to visit beautiful fantasy worlds and dive right into a variety of problems. It is time for Pathfinder: Kingmaker to join that list.
These days, players have a plethora of options to customize their stick’s 30 mm pushbuttons. However, there aren’t as many options for the secondary 24 mm buttons used for the Start and Select, or for Hit Box style controllers.
Now, Arcade Shock and Jasen’s Customs are working with Sanwa Denshi themselves for help address this issue somewhat by releasing a “Dark Hai” variant of the latter’s OBSF-24 push buttons. The “Dark Hai” colorway, for those who aren’t familiar with it, is a unique 2-tone one featuring black rims and dark gray plungers. Arcade stick enthusiasts may recognize it as the colorway of the OBSF-30 buttons used in the MadCatz Arcade FightStick Tournament Edition 2, as well as the last 2 buttons of the original “Round 1” and “Round 2” Arcade FightStick Tournament Edition.
For those interested in picking a set of these new “Dark Hai” OBSF-24 push buttons, they are currently available for pre-order over at Jasen’s Customs for $2.25 per piece. Shipping for these will start on October 25.

In a dead city filled with terrors, you and eleven other desperate individuals are airdropped and stranded with nothing but what you can scavenge from dilapidated buildings and trains. Given only one route to survival, you must make your way quickly through the dangerous landscape to fulfill your mission; and that does not include making friends. This is our Dying Light: Bad Blood review.
Former Ultimate Fighting Championship and Bellator MMA lightweight king Eddie Alvarez has officially signed with One Championship, the promotion announced.
As you’ve most likely heard, SoulCalibur VI will finally be available for purchase on our devices later this week — on October 19th. If you’ve never played the series, but are curious or want to introduce a friend to the game, let them know about this introductory video from Bandai Namco.
MarkMan narrates the video, first going over the basics of movement. Note that in order to crouch or jump, you have to hold the Guard button, because normally, pressing up and down will make your character strafe in the appropriate direction; this is the famous 8-Way Run! For those who played the series before, the horizontal versus vertical attack system is familiar. The “rock-paper-scissors” nature of this system is reflected in a new battle mechanic, Reversal Edge. By pressing B+G, you enter a parrying stance, blocking any attacks except for Guard Breaks and Unblockables, then hit the opponent. On contact, the two fighters enter a clash cinematic where pressing A defeats K, B overcomes A, and K counters B. Additional movement options are available.
Sort of similar to SoulCalibur V, a power meter returns. This time, it can be used either for Soul Charge (a temporary, powered-up state), Critical Edge attacks (supers) or some character-specific attacks. Note that if your opponent is on the match point, you will always get a full bar of power, and the meter has a capacity for two actions.

Let’s find out in our review of the Logitech G502 HERO Gaming Mouse.

One of BioWare’s most beloved narrative developers was Mike Laidlaw who left the company last year to pursue new opportunities. One of those is as the narrative consultant for The Waylanders, a new “time-travelling fantasy RPG” that has just landed on KickStarter. The team is hoping to raise $150,000 over the coming month that will help it develop “an engaging narrative featuring impactful character development, unique companion romance options and a deeply technical combat system”.
